Hi Amy. Are you by chance referring to the new experience in ArcGIS Online using "Dashboard" items?
Dashboards just came out of beta and we encourage you to try them.
Regarding your question, you could configure a two-step workflow:
1. Make a list, called List A, of records (no geometry)
2. Make another list, called List B, of features (with geometries)
3. Configure actions on List A. From the selection, "Filter" List B (the target). Choose the primary and foreign key fields. Press Done.
4. Configure actions on List B. From the selection, "Zoom" the map (the target). Press Done.
5. Click on a record from List A and see it filter List B to one feature.
6. Click on the feature in List B to zoom to the location on the map.
Note: The Details element doesn't support driving actions at this time.
